Africa Eco Race: Entry Fees for third Edition of the Rally are now available.

The third edition of the Africa Eco Race is launched and the entry fees are now available. Real sporting challenge between Europe and Dakar by crossing Morocco and Mauritania, this African adventure carries over values of simplicity, conviviality and authenticity between December 27th 2010 and January 9th 2011.

Likewise the two previous editions, René Metge, Sporting Director of the Rally, will propose to the competitors a magical route. Magic of the desert and magic of Africa, the 2011 edition will remain faithful to its values based on sharing, a real spirit of mutual aid and sporting ethics.

Opened to cars, bikes, quads and trucks, the Africa Eco Race applies the FIA and FIM regulations. But for those who do not wish to fight against the clock, it is always possible to enter the Raid. Participants (cars and bikes) will take every day a part of the race route and will be able to face the same difficulties as the competitors.

Both partners and active participants, Morocco, Mauritania and Senegal will welcome for the third consecutive year the caravan of the rally in the purest tradition of hospitality.

This year, a quite particular effort has been granted on the entry fees, thanks to the coming of a new partner. Very attractive, they will allow a maximum of competitors to share this unforgettable adventure on two or four wheels. The entry fees for the race and the raid are available on the official website [ www.africarace.com ].
